Putting Rubber Half Soles on my new Allen Edmonds

Описание: In this episode, I bumble my way through putting rubber protective half soles on a pair of Allen Emdonds Leyland woven leather split toe penny loafers that we found at a thrift store recently. I say "bumble" because I was a little rusty from being out of practice being quarantined not getting many shoes in, so I do show the whole process, mistakes and all.
